Why should we celebrate Harmony Week?
Harmony Week is an important part of living in Australia. It reminds us to be respectful of other peoples' cultures and traditions. It reminds us to be inclusive and not make anyone feel left out. It reminds us that no matter where we might come from, we are all Australians.
